If the bladder incontinence came on suddenly only since November, call your doctor back with that information. Also, ask about the vaginal itchiness if you didn't already discuss that with your doctor. Otherwise, continue to keep track of any vaginal bleeding, and call the doctor again if it becomes heavier than you've experienced in the last two months or if any other symptoms occur. Otherwise, March sounds good.
